In this first podcast fom Guardian Australia at the Brisbane Festival, Vicky Frost, Van Badham and Katherine Viner discuss their early highlights including Urban, a circus from the streets of Cali, Colombia which combines extraordinary acrobatics with a reggaeton and Latin hip-hop soundtrack to tell the story of the young performers and their struggles. Also on the agenda: reactions to Goma's My Country: I Still Call Australia Home: Contemporary Art from Black Australia – the gallery's largest exhibition of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island art to date.
In our interviews, hear from festival artistic director Noel Staunton about the fortuitous Christmas gift that led to giant pink bunnies popping up all over the city, and Mele Fernandes and Alex Ben Mayor talk about the Australian-Timorese collaboration Doku Rai.
